Sinner's Prayer
If you've come to this page on purpose and are ready to accept Jesus as your Savior, the
angels in heaven (along with the saints who've gone on before) are rejoicing right along with
us!

"I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who
repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent." (Luke 15:7).

This is what the Bible says:

"... all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God..." (Romans 3:23).

"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for
us." (Romans 5:8).

"That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God
raised him from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10:9).

"And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Acts 2:21).

"I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved." (John 10:9).

You can pray any way you want to. The thief on the cross had a simple prayer.

"Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom." " (Luke 23:42).

and verse 43 says this:

"Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise." "

Confess to Him that you are a sinner (Rom. 3:23 and 10:9). That you realize that you can't get
into heaven without His redeeming blood (Acts 4:12). Believe that He was raised from the dead
(Rom. 10:9). Ask Him to be your Savior (Acts 2:21). Then accept it by faith that you are one of
His...not because
we say so...but because He  says so (John 10:9). And once you belong to
Jesus, you can be sure that...

"I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand."
(John 10:28).

Prayer is nothing more than talking to God. Just like you talk to your friends or anyone else. If
you're ready  you can pray the following prayer or one of your own.

"Dear Lord, I admit to you that I'm a sinner and that I need your forgiveness. I'm sorry, Lord,
and ask you to forgive me for my sins and come into my heart to be my Lord and Savior. Thank
you, Jesus, for loving me enough to die on the cross in my place, and thank you for your gift of
eternal life. In your name, I pray. Amen."
